Development
*Long idea list (25): Doing 1-10-12. (11 = nux not helping!) 13 didn’t help. Trying a bit of 14 low histamine, not 15 antihistamines. No sense in 16 taking DAO if it’s something else(?) 17 Copper from psyllium. Didn’t ask 18 = B3. Docs: Tried 20, leaving 21 + 22, trying 19 sleep ps., 24 GI and 25 phoning 2 immunologists.
Jab-sfx:
Research-search today:
Contacted my ex-sleep lab doc and two immunologists in my area who’ve done work on CoV-jab-sfx. Thinking about returning to my allergologist. And gastroenterologist cos of the dysphagia if I’m up to it.
Sinuses: 10’’: Tap 3rd eye, push up under cheek bones, moustache point strongly, pinch nose end, press up & hold breath as long as possible. Unblock Stuffy Nose & Sinus Drainage in 60 Seconds - Dr Alan Mandell, DC - YouTube
If it’s not DAO, it may still be HIT (histamine intolerance), but also MCAS, so here goes.
